The 2013 Rural
Hill Sheepdog
Trials And Dog
Festival
What better way to wrap up the
fall season than with your canine
pal and several hundred of their
new best friends? Bring your family,
friends, and dog (or dogs) to the
Rural Hill Sheepdog Trials and Dog
Festival November 9th and 10th for
one of the area’s best known dog
events, now in its nineteenth year!
No other dog festival in the area
can offer more fun or variety!
Don’t miss a thing! National
Border Collie Sheepherding
Championships will be held
over the two day event, as will
as Carolina Dock Dogs and Dog
Sports demonstrations featuring
the Greater Charlotte Shetland
Sheepdog Club and others! Also on
hand will be North Carolina beer
and wine, heritage breed livestock,
hay rides, historic craft and cooking
demos, food vendors, shopping,
open trails, antique tractors, living
history demonstrations in the
1760’s cabin, pumpkin chunkin’*,
corn launchin’, kid’s activities, and
much more!

* ring your old Fall pumpkins and
B
let us chunk em’ into the field for
you using our large, powerful,
and explosively fun catapult! This
hallmark feature of the Sheepdog
Trials will launch your orange
friend as much as 40 feet into the
air: Newton’s law of gravity still
applies however, and it will soon
land with a splat in our field.
“The most comprehensive way to learn
where movies were made in North Carolina.”
